We used The Davenport for both our ceremony and our reception. The staff were extremely helpful and responsive when we were in the planning stages, and the value was great, especially considering we had the venue from 10:30am until 2:00am! Everyone who came to our wedding commented on how beautiful the space was. It was important to me that I be able to use the caterer, dj, etc. of my choice, and the Davenport gave me the flexibility to do that. I highly recommend this venue for your event!
We've performed at The Davenport countless times. It's such and easy place to perform at! Great for ceremony and reception or just reception. Can't wait to go there again!
Parker DJ Entertainment had the pleasure of being the DJ at this beautiful establishment for a very awesome couple! This venue is elegant and very unique! We can't wait for the opportunity to play here again!
